Labor Journal 3

1. I thought about my original topic which was parking but then realized that it was too specific and kind of boring. So I chose to change my topic to a different one that is more broad and a lot more interesting to research, write, and read about.

2. My main take always were to understand what type of paper this is, it is to research a topic that relates to us and our society and to have it be an interesting paper.

3. I think I have been doing ok in my labor/work for this week and I think I got my topic down and it should be much easier to find and do more research on my topic now. I would’ve just started it’s this topic originially

4.
K - my knowledge about the topic come from what I have learned throughout school and news and what reasearch I have done about it
W - I would like to find reasonable and realistic solutions to the issue and try to advocate for those solutions while at the same time talking about why other solutions or maybe even those solutions have flaws

Labor journal week 14

Email: Thank you for the response. I feel that the feedback is accurate. I have now realized that I completely forgot the works cited page as well as a 4th source and this was a mishap on my side. I plan to add the 4th source and a works cited page before I post it on my portfolio. I think that the book club this semester is very good. I enjoy my book. The only complaints I would have is that it seemed a little bit rushed for some reason but it might just be because we are doing it during the latter half of the semester rather than the first half. Questions I have for essay 3 is how long it would be, whether or not it should be longer or shorter than our previous essays and it seems like we have much less time to work on it. But I am ok with that. I am interested to know what the prompt for the essay is and how we will write it.

book club response 3

How does your author's personal life relate to larger social issues?  Is that an essential part of a powerful narrative?  Why or why not? My authors personal life relates to larger social issues because his life was surrounded by poverty and the issue of identity. The ideas that Trevor Noah puts forth are all very relevant to our social issues today. Many people have a problem finding their own identity and understanding who they are and it is exemplified in the book when Trevor describes his childhood and his life and how his race has affected who he is. I believe that the ideas that stem from his personal life and connect to larger social issues are all very essential to the narrative and move the story forward with good development and pacing.
